Know If It’s Time to Upgrade Your Wi-Fi Network to Enjoy Seamless Connectivity Around The Clock

Internet networks are vital to the smooth running of modern homes. Almost all devices in our homes today come equipped with the ability to connect to the Internet, from our phones and televisions to computers, gaming consoles, and even ovens and refrigerators. As a result, having a strong and stable connection around the clock has become absolutely essential—without it, daily life is drastically altered. 

It’s necessary that your home Wi-Fi is up to par. But is it? Here are a few signs that your home network setup in Issaquah or any other areas in greater King County requires an upgrade.

Significant Fluctuations in Signal Strength Across the Home

Slight variations in signal strength in different areas of the house are typical, but if you are experiencing significant fluctuations in signal reception, there may be a problem with your network coverage. Whether this is your normal or a dismaying new observation, your best course of action is to upgrade your home network as soon as possible! 

Limited Connectivity in the Yard

Love catching up on your favorite shows or with your friends using video calls while relaxing in the backyard or by the pool, but your poor Wi-Fi connection ruins the experience? 

This could also be a coverage issue. Depending on your router’s location, being in the backyard can mean you’re leaving the extent of its range. If there are too many structural obstructions between the router and the user—like walls or furniture—you could experience the same issue.

In both cases, setting up an outdoor access point or adding another router to the network can resolve the problem and provide a stable connection in the yard.

Lack of Bandwidth Limits Internet Usage for Multiple Users

It’s common for people to complain of losing connectivity and speed on their phones and computers when someone else in the home is playing games online. This happens because most of these games take up a lot of your bandwidth, leaving very little for all other devices. This congests the network and reduces the speed to a crawl.

The solution is to upgrade your router to tri-band or set up a wired connection for your gaming console via a powerline network adapter—either ensure the ultimate connectivity.
